Raw Brownies with Chocolate Coconut Ganache

Makes: 8 Brownies or 16 Brownie Bites

Ingredients

For the brownie:

1/2 cup almonds

1/2 cup pecans

1 cup medjool dates, stones removed

2 tbsp raw cocoa powder

1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence

For the coconut ganache topping:

1/4 cup coconut oil

1/4 cup raw cocoa powder

2 tbsp maple syrup

Instructions

Place the nuts, dates, cocoa powder, vanilla and salt into the food processor [tooltip text=”If you want a smooth brownie blend the nuts to a fine flour before adding the other ingredients, I like some bigger pieces of nut for crunch so just throw them in with the other ingredients!”] and blend until well combined and the nuts are the desired size.[/tooltip]

Place in an container about 6 x 4 inches (I use a plastic tuperware tub) lined with baking paper. Press the mix down to fill the container.

Place in the freezer.

Make the ganache by melting the coconut oil in a small saucepan on a low heat then stirring in cocoa powder and maple syrup.

Remove the brownie from the freezer and pour over the ganache. Spread it all over the brownie. Return to the freezer.

When you are ready to serve remove from the freezer. Run a sharp knife in hot water and cut the brownie into squares. Allow them to sit for 10 minutes to warm slightly.
